The expensive-for-the-counciltaxpayer experiment by Goddard, Derbyshire et al now has to be reversed with care services being brought back in-house.
“Comments/Views of the Executive Councillor:
Given the recent developments in integrated locality working following the emergence of
the CCG this is a tremendous opportunity for the service to return to the Council and play
a key role alongside other front-line staff in maintaining people in their own homes and out
of acute and residential care.”
Ye Gods and little fishes. They set this Schweinerei up, fail to monitor it properly and when it fails miserably they see it as a “tremendous opportunity”.

Executive Report
Appendices that is exempt from publication
The reason that the item is likely to be considered in private is:
The appendices to the report will contain information exempt from publication under Category 4 of
Schedule 12 A of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended) in that it contains ‘Information
relating to any consultations or negotiations, or contemplated consultations or negotiations, in
connection with any labour relations matter arising between the authority or a Minister of the Crown
and employees of, or office-holders under the authority’.
The reason that the matter is urgent and cannot be delayed is:
the Council needs to begin consultations with employees about TUPE as soon as possible after the
Executive Meeting on 7 January 2013 (should the Executive accept the proposals) and any delay in
beginning these consultations would mean the Council was not able to take the necessary steps to
ensure it can provide the reablement services currently provided by ISSK by the start of the next
financial year and that the Council can set the budget accordingly
The agreement of Councillor Sheila Bailey was obtained on 20 December 2012
A final decision on whether this item will be considered in the private will be taken at the meeting.
The Executive will decide whether it will discuss the confidential information in the report or whether
it wishes to only discuss those elements of the report that are public documents, thereby avoiding
the need for that part of the meeting or the decision to be taken in private.
